Delays at AJM Healthcare mean Rosy Bremer, 52, has spent hundreds on private hire
NHS’s leading wheelchair provider told to improve
When Rosy Bremer, 52, from Portsmouth, applied for a wheelchair from the NHS she expected it to take almost a year to arrive. She has spent hundreds since then hiring a private vehicle while she waits, despite having motor neurone disease (MND).
Bremer is one of many who have had issues with the private wheelchair firm AJM Healthcare. The health service ombudsman told AJM to improve its complaints system amid concerns about delays. Some disabled people have reported waiting up to two years for a chair.
